<h3>Goals</h3>
<ul>
	<li>Learn how to check the status of the repository</li>
</ul>
<h2>Check the status of the repository <em>01</em></h2>
<p>Use the <code>git status</code> command to check the current status of the repository.</p>
<h4>Execute:</h4>
<pre class="instructions">git status</pre>
<p>You should see</p>
<h4>Output:</h4>
<pre class="sample">$ git status
# On branch master
nothing to commit (working directory clean)
</pre>
<p>The status command reports that there is nothing to commit.  This means that the repository has all the current state of the working directory.  There are no outstanding changes to record.</p>
<p>We will use the <code>git status</code> command to continue to monitor the state between the repository and the working directory.</p>
